Chapter 245

Chapter 245 He Came

After Cordelia and her team arrived in the disaster area, they found that

their mobile phone signal was very poor, almost none.

Fortunately, Lidio carried a satellite phone on his back.

"Milo is a man with experience! Otherwise, we will be helpless!" Lidio

said cheerfully.

Arriving in the shockproof shed of the medical team, Cordelia

immediately went to work.

Time was life, and they shouldn't delay in treating the injured.

Cordelia had been busy all night, and she was extremely exhausted.

She was relieved to see these patients being safely sent to the hospital.

She casually found a vacant camp bed to sleep for a while and

continued to work after waking up.

Aftershocks still occurred from time to time. In the face of the disaster

and life, she felt she was small

Secret love and marriage used to be essential things in her life, but now

they were nothing in her eyes.

She suddenly thought of how Grandma had described her mother, "She

sacrificed herself for righteousness!"

Thinking of her biological mother being such a great and noble person,

Cordelia felt full of energy.

After another 24 hours of fierce fighting, Cordelia was so sleepy that

she nestled on a camp bed in the corner of the shockproof shed and

fell asleep.

"Another earthquake! Everyone pay attention! Protect yourself."

There was a loud noise, and Cordelia opened her misty eyes.

A handsome face suddenly appeared in front of her, only a dozen

centimeters away.

The man's perfect lips were pursed tightly, and he looked at her

seriously. His eyes were focused and pious

She suddenly closed her eyes sleepily again. She must be dreaming

again.

Recently, Elijah would come to her dreams from time to time, always

with that cold face. What would happen to him if he smiled?

"Cordelia, wake up! There's an earthquake."

It was not a dream!

She heard Elijah's voice!

Cordelia suddenly opened her eyes, only to see Elijah squatting before

her.

"Why are you here?" Cordelia looked at him in astonishment.

"Leave the shockproof shed first, and we will talk until the earthquake

subsides.” Elijah pulled Cordelia up and walked outside.

The two stood in the open space for a while, and Cordelia was relieved

to see the doctors and patients going back to the shockproof shed one

after another.

Only then did she notice that Elijah's forehead was still wrapped with

gauze, and his arm was wrapped with a bandage.

Due to the exhaustion of the journey, the dressing could not be

changed immediately, and his wound was oozing blood, which stained

the bandage a little red.

Cordelia immediately put on a straight face. "Elijah, what are you doing

here? The place is dangerous. Do you know this?"

"I know, but I can't contact you.” Elijah held her hand and said sullenly,

"You blocked me."

"Aren't you unwilling to see me? I thought that we would be strangers

in the future. Why should we still keep in touch?" Cordelia's icy little

face was full of seriousness without a trace of a smile on it.

“I was wrong."

Elijah stared down at Cordelia’s tired little face and distressedly hugged

her in his arms.

"It's all my fault, Cordelia. I'm sorry. I can't be forgiven for not being

able to celebrate your birthday with you," Elijah whispered in her ear.

His gentleness was touching

With a sore nose, Cordelia suddenly raised her arms and hugged

Elijah’s waist tightly.

Because he would rather hurt himself than touch another woman, and

because of his inexplicable loyalty, Cordelia didn't want to argue with

him anymore.

The sun shone through the clouds and scattered the earth, illuminating

all the haze as if bringing new hope to people.

“Elijah...”

Elijah was immersed in the beauty of this moment, and his heart

tightened when he heard her speak suddenly.

"Um?"
